FELICIANO, Denise de Sousa  y  SOUZA, Audrey Setton Lopes de. Beyond the breast: a parent-infant psychoanalytical therapy motivated by breast-feeding difficulties. J. psicanal. [online]. 2011, vol.44, n.81, pp.145-161. ISSN 0103-5835.

Through this work, the authors wish to present the results of a psychoanalytical work performed in the case of a breast-feeding complaint for a 2 months old baby. This work relies on the author’s parent-infant psychoanalytical model. Such a model assumes that breast-feeding is a communication channel for unconscious anxiety and underlying conflicts existing in the family’s behavior. Also, this model assumes that their nomination can help the parents in finding new affective ways, allowing a re-encounter between mother and baby. In some cases, the extended breast-feeding process that results also benefits from this approach.

Palabras clave : Breast-feeding; Link; Mother-infant relationship; Parent-infant psychoanalytical therapy; Early therapy.
